I'm relativly new to Backbone.js



I have a JSON like the picture shows !
I saw some Answers in relation with Backbone-relational, but still dont get the point!



How can i convert this JSON to Backbone.js Collections/Models??



I update with a code but it dont work like expected! i can't see an model when i do :



My Structure is :



[0] : is a collection of models



[clefs] + ... + [Rest] : are collection of models



(clefs) => [0] + ... + [9] : are Models(title contains a string, path too)



Thanks a lot!!



EDIT(10.01.12) :



My Solution :



window.initModel = Backbone.Model.extend({
defaults: {
title: ,
path:
}
});
window.CustomCollection = Backbone.Collection.extend({
model: initModel
});
window.Init = Backbone.Model.extend({
url : function(){
return /api/data.json
},

parse: function(response) {

clefs = new CustomCollection();
clefs.add(response.clefs);
this.set({clefs: clefs});

.....

rests = new CustomCollection();
rests.add(response.rests);
this.set({rests: rests});
}
});


this helped me out too!

I'm at work, so I cannot give you a fully coded answer, but the gist is, you can do the following in your top level models to achieve a nested model hierarchy:



var AmericasNextTopModel = Backbone.Models.extend({
initialize: function(){

this.set({
clefs: new ClefCollection(this.get('clefs')),
accidentals: new AccidentalCollection(this.get('accidentals')),
notes: new NoteCollection(this.get('notes')),
rests: new RestCollection(this.get('rests'))
});
}
});


I do not use backbone-relational so I cannot give you an answer regarding that.



Are you making an online sheet music viewer/editor? :D Cool I'd love to see it when you're done.
